7 Nights With My Step Brother's Rival Chapter 80 : Marcus Returns
“Marcus… you’re alive.”Dante said it like a fact he didn’t trust.Like saying it out loud might break whatever illusion was standing in front of him.Marcus looked different.Too different.His face was thinner. His shoulders slightly hunched.Clothes hanging loose like he hadn’t been eating properly.Like he hadn’t been living properly.“Can I come in?” Marcus asked.His voice was rough. Tired.Dante stepped aside immediately.“Of course.”Marcus walked in slowly.His eyes moved around the house.The furniture.The soft light.The scattered toys.Elena’s little shoes by the stairs.Leo’s backpack half open on a chair.He stopped.“You’ve built something,” he said quietly.Dante didn’t respond right away.“Yeah,” he said finally. “We have.”Marcus nodded, but there was something in his expression.Something heavy.Something unfinished.“What happened to you?” Dante asked.Marcus exhaled.“I wasn’t at the safe house when they attacked.”Dante frowned.“You weren’t there?”“No. I left
7 Nights With My Step Brother's Rival Chapter 79 : The Third Child
“Pregnant?”Dante said the word like it didn’t fully belong to him.Like it might disappear if he didn’t hold onto it carefully.Sienna watched his face closely, her hands resting over her stomach.“Yes,” she said softly.Then, after a pause, “I’m eight weeks.”Dante blinked.Once.Twice.Then the words hit him.Another baby.Another life.His chest lifted sharply as if he’d just remembered how to breathe.“Are you serious?” His voice cracked, but there was a smile forming now. “Really?”Sienna gave a small nod.“Three tests. Doctor confirmed yesterday.”Dante stepped forward.Slow.Careful.Like she might vanish if he moved too fast.Then he pulled her into his arms.Held her tightly.Not too tight.Just enough to feel real.“We’re having another baby,” he said under his breath.Sienna let out a soft laugh.“Are you happy?”He pulled back just enough to look at her.His eyes were bright.Alive.“Happy?” He shook his head. “Sienna, this is everything.”His hand rested on her cheek.“I
7 Nights With My Step Brother's Rival Chapter 78 : Letting Go
Dante woke to sunlight spilling across his face.Warm. Soft. Real.For a moment, he didn’t move.He just lay there and listened.The house was quiet.Peaceful in a way that still felt new.Sienna slept beside him, one hand resting near his arm.Elena’s soft breathing came from the crib in the corner.Down the hall, Leo’s door was closed.Their home.Their life.Dante closed his eyes briefly.The dream was still there.His father’s voice.Forgive.Move on.Live.He sat up slowly, careful not to disturb Sienna.The air felt different this morning.Lighter.Or maybe it was him.He got dressed and walked into the kitchen.The coffee machine hummed quietly.He made a cup and carried it outside.The ocean stretched out in front of him.Calm.Endless.The same view that had once given him peace.The same view that now felt like something deeper.He sat down on the porch steps and watched the sunrise.Let it rise slowly.Let it settle in his chest.Then he picked up his phone.Dialed a number
7 Nights With My Step Brother's Rival Chapter 77 : The Uncle’s Betrayal
Dante couldn’t breathe.The name sat in his chest like a weight.Gregory.His uncle.His father’s brother.The man who had hugged him at the funeral.Who had stood beside him when everything fell apart.Who had told him to be strong.Who had promised to help hold the family together.All of it. A lie.Dante’s fingers curled slowly into a fist.“You’re sure?” His voice came out rough. Strained. “Absolutely sure it was Gregory?”Marcus didn’t hesitate.“I traced the money. Three accounts. All connected back to him.”Sienna stepped closer, her voice careful. “Proof?”“Yes. Bank records. Phone logs. Transfers. Everything lines up.”Silence followed that.Heavy. Uncomfortable.Dante felt something inside him shift.Not anger.Not yet.Something colder.“Why?” Sienna asked quietly. “Why would he do that to his own brother?”Marcus leaned back in his chair, tired in a way that had nothing to do with age.“Jealousy. Resentment. Greed.”Dante’s voice cut in. “Explain.”Marcus nodded slowly.“Y
7 Nights With My Step Brother's Rival Chapter 76 : The Search for Marcus Hale
Dante woke the next morning with the name already in his head.Marcus Hale.He lay there for a while, staring at the ceiling, trying to push it away. He’d promised himself he wouldn’t go down this road again. Promised Sienna the same thing.No more chasing shadows. No more letting the past drag them under.Family first.Always.But the name wouldn’t leave.It sat there, heavy and insistent.Marcus Hale. The second car. The missing piece that refused to stay buried.By the time he got out of bed, he already knew he wasn’t done with it.---Breakfast didn’t help.Leo was halfway through a story about something that happened at school, something about a frog and a teacher who panicked. Elena kept interrupting to correct details. They were both talking at once by the end of it.Dante smiled at the right moments. Nodded when it seemed expected.But he couldn’t follow the story.Sienna noticed.She always did.“You’re thinking about him,” she said once the kids ran off to the living room.
7 Nights With My Step Brother's Rival Chapter 75 : Arthur’s Letter
Sienna’s hands trembled as she unfolded the pages.The paper felt heavier than it should have. Not because of weight, but because of what it carried.Arthur Blackwood’s handwriting stared back at her. Uneven. Slightly shaky near the end. Like the man who wrote it had been breaking down, one line at a time.Dante sat close beside her. Quiet. Watching. Waiting.Sienna swallowed and began to read.“Sienna and Dante,” she said.“If you’re reading this, I’m dead.”She paused, the words sinking in before she continued.“Good. I deserve to be.”Her voice softened.“For what I did. For what I became. For the lives I destroyed.”Sienna’s chest tightened. “He’s confessing right from the start.”Dante didn’t answer. But he leaned in slightly, his eyes locked on the page.“I know you both hate me. You should.”Sienna felt her fingers stiffen around the letter.“I was a terrible father, Sienna. Absent. Cold. More concerned with money and power than with the daughter who needed me.”Her throat tigh
7 Nights With My Step Brother's Rival Chapter 39 : The New Order
Dante stared at the phone long after the Contessa hung up."What are you thinking?" Sienna asked."That I'm tired." He set the phone down. Rubbed his face. "Tired of meetings. Tired of councils. Tired of power games that get people killed.""Then say no.""It's not that simple.""Why not?" Sienna s

Sienna stared at her phone.Julian was dead.Despite everything he'd done. Despite the betrayals. Despite watching him sell her out again and again. He was still her brother.And now he was gone."Mama?" Leo tugged on her sleeve. "Are you crying?"She touched her face. Wet. She hadn't even realized

Sienna didn't sleep.She lay in bed staring at the ceiling, replaying Dante's phone call over and over in her head. Every word. Every pause. Every careful, clinical question about annulments and custody.By the time dawn broke, she'd made a decision.She wasn't going to pretend. Wasn't going to smi

The gunshot never came.Instead, a voice echoed from the corridor. "I don't think so."Elena stepped back into the room. She was holding a gun. One of the escort guards lay on the floor behind her, unconscious or dead. The other was nowhere to be seen.Leo clung to her side, his small hands grippin
